Natural Waves
If you're looking for a festive hairstyle that's both easy and stylish, look no further than natural waves. This classic look can be achieved with either a curling iron or straightener, and can be dressed up or down depending on your needs.
For a more casual take on the style, simply leave your waves loose and let them fall where they may. Regardless of how you wear them, natural waves are sure to give you a festive hairstyle look that will turn heads all season long.

2. Bouncy Blowout
When it comes to festive hairstyles, there's nothing quite like a bouncy blowout. This style is perfect for holiday parties and events, and it can be easily achieved with the right products and tools, such as GHD that are used in our Samantha Cusick London salons.
Want to achieve the look at home? You'll need to prep your hair by washing it with a volumising shampoo and conditioner. Once your hair is clean and dry, apply a root-lifting spray or mousse to your roots. Then, using a round brush, blow dry your hair in sections until it's completely dry.
Once your hair is dry, you can add some extra volume by spraying a texturizing spray throughout your hair. Finally, finish off the look with a high-shine hairspray for added hold and shine.
3. Soft Cut & Ginger match
If you're considering a colour change for Christmas, the following hair colours for winter 2022 are a tale of extremes: Brunettes are getting darker, blondes are getting icier, and spiced tones are still a great way to warm up your hair tone while pointing to one of this year's trendiest trends: copper hair!
If you don't like ginger tones, try Dark Chocolate, Butter blonde-blend, or Caramel Balayage! Why not try that ash blonde if you prefer more icy tones?
4.Curtain fringe
When it comes to festive hairstyles, there are endless possibilities. But if you're looking for something a little bit different this year, a trending curtain fringe?
A curtain fringe is a great way to add a touch of glamour to any hairstyle and if you're not used to wearing fringe, it's the perfect way to try out the look without going too drastic.
This type of fringe is perfect to add some edginess to overall look, as it gives a nise shapeframe to your face! To style a curtain fringe, start by blow-drying your hair straight. Then use a straightening iron to create sleek, defined layers. Finish off with some strong-hold hairspray to keep everything in place.
